Ken Notes: Speaking of the yoyo, salt has been an issues for decades and is not going away anytime soon. The dollar cost of accidents at intersections and on our highways (not to mention death and injury) will always be direct conflict with efforts to reduce salt. Someday we will use renewable energy to heat our road but no time soon I am afraid.
